This compact two-bedroom terraced cottage on Ailesbury Street offers affordable, move-in-ready accommodation in Sunderland’s Pallion area. The property is freehold, has two bathrooms, double glazing, mains gas central heating and a practical layout suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low running costs.
Rooms are modest but well maintained: a generous living room, a good-sized kitchen and two double bedrooms, plus a small loft room. Council Tax Band A and an EPC rating of C help keep ongoing costs low. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for home working or streaming.
Buyers should note material negatives clearly: the plot is small with limited outdoor space, the house fronts directly onto the pavement, and the local area records higher crime and relative deprivation. The cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, so insulating improvements could be required to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
Overall this property represents a practical, affordable entry on to the housing ladder or a straightforward rental proposition. Its compact footprint and basic finishes mean it will particularly suit buyers prioritising location, low maintenance and low council tax over large gardens or expansive living space.
